Precautions for the treatment of juvenile epilepsy

summary

Epilepsy history of 2 years, caused by poisoning, long-term use of phenytoin sodium, clonazepam, after treatment is now good, I put the youth epilepsy treatment precautions sorted out, for your reference.

Precautions for the treatment of juvenile epilepsy

Examination 1: neuroimaging examination, CT and MRI greatly improved the diagnosis of structural abnormalities of epileptic lesions. At present, brain function tests have been used in clinic, including cation diffraction tomography (PET), single photon diffraction tomography (SPECT) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). Pet can measure the metabolism of glucose and oxygen, cerebral blood flow and neurotransmitter function. SPECT can also measure the changes of cerebral blood flow, metabolism and neurotransmitter function, but it is not as accurate as pet. MRS can measure the changes of some chemicals, such as acetylaspartic acid, choline containing substances, creatine and lactate, in the epileptic region.

Examination 2: neurobiochemical examination. The ion specific electrode and microdialysis probe, which have been used at present, can be placed in the epileptic area of the brain to measure some biochemical changes during, during and after seizures.

Examination 3: neuropathological examination is the pathological examination of surgical resection of epileptic lesions, which can determine that the etiology of epilepsy is caused by brain tumor scar, vascular malformation, sclerosing inflammation, dysplasia or other abnormalities.

matters needing attention

Patients with epilepsy should not be too hungry or full, overeating, because it is easy to induce seizures.
